• Jean Strange : [Looking at Larry's new office]  All this joint needs is a horsehair sofa... and a horsehair sofa.

• Beauty Shop Manager : [Looking at the photographs of scantily-clad men Jean has given her]  Well, look who's fallen among us! Mmmm-mmm!

  Jean Strange : We're using these boys in an idea we're working on, outdoor sports with indoor trimmings.

  Beauty Shop Manager : [Laciviously]  As far as I'm concerned... outdoors, indoors, or behind doors!

• Larry Williams : Well, well, well, if it isn't the belle of the big house? You haven't changed a bit, Jean. Still the same swell number.

  Jean Strange : Lay off that number stuff. You'll never make a number out of me again.

  Larry Williams : Still the same quick comeback.

  Jean Strange : Yeah, and the same slick come-on. And speaking of come-on, about that oil deal...

  Larry Williams : Oh, forget it. That's last week's wash.

  Jean Strange : Maybe, but it hasn't been ironed out yet. Why didn't you tell me there was no oil in those oil wells?

  Larry Williams : I didn't know there was no oil in those oil wells.

  Jean Strange : But you knew there were no oil wells.

• Larry Williams : What's the most sought-after thing in the country today?

  Jean Strange : A medium-priced giraffe.
